Screen frontlit system

Screen frontlit system

The MOON Light 2 technology enables one to use the device in the dark or under poor lighting conditions. When this function is on, soft luminescence of the screen comfortable for reading in dark rooms is being generated. It also has a color temperature control and, thanks to the Flicker-Free technology, this screen frontlit system is perfectly smooth.

Touch control

The capacitive touch screen with the Multi-touch function provides convenient control when reading or setting the device: scrolling, zooming, running the context menu and much more. Controlling the E Reader is as convenient as using a smartphone or tablet.

What MOON Light 2 is...

The latest researches have shown that blue light prevents the production of melatonin (daily rhythms regulator), which is necessary for a person to sleep. Therefore, after reading on a glowing screen of a regular tablet or smartphone, it is often difficult to fall asleep. MOON Light 2 allows you to adjust the brightness of cold and warm LED lights independently, choosing at will white light for reading during the daytime, and more yellow for reading before sleeping. Usage of DC in the Flicker-Fr ee technology completely eliminates shimmering of the LEDs and significantly reduces discomfort for the sight and eye fatigue while long using the E Reader.
